Morphisms of sheaves factor as a locally surjective followed by a locally injective morphism #

When morphisms in a concrete category A factor in a functorial manner as a surjective map followed by an injective map, we obtain that any morphism of sheaves in Sheaf J A factors in a functorial manner as a locally surjective morphism (which is epi) followed by a locally injective morphism (which is mono).

Moreover, if we assume that the category of sheaves Sheaf J A is balanced (see Sites.LeftExact), then epimorphisms are exactly locally surjective morphisms.

Given a functorial surjective/injective factorizations of morphisms in a concrete category A, this is the induced functorial locally surjective/locally injective factorization of morphisms in the category Sheaf J A.
